Baby Princess Through Status Window
Chapter 6's
Ellie told me that the Emperor would never call Siervian except for dinner. So today's meeting should have some purpose.
"But why is he upset?"
Sierra carefully read his father's mood. Thanks to the status window, he could make up for his mistake.
"I have to do well."
It was surprising that her father showed concern when she was sick, but she did not know when he would turn away from her again.
What happened in his previous life has not happened. If she continued to act like a good princess, then perhaps her fate could be changed.
“Why don't you eat?”
At his father's encouragement, Siervian saw snacks on the table.
Everything looks so delicious.
He can tell even when he hasn't bitten it. He knew they would melt in his mouth.
There are several types of chocolate madeleine and pastries, and there is a cream like snow on top of some cakes. Macaron honey glitters, teasing it effectively.
"Should I eat just one?"
He stared longingly at the delicious dessert, but then a status window suddenly appeared at his periphery. It was the Emperor's mind once again, still suspiciously soft and warm.
[ Alderuan Erveldotte ]
Mind: Aren't you too thin? Or because you are so cute that it makes your dear Siervian smaller in my eyes?
The little boy in question read his father's mind, confused. Ellie said the same thing about him this morning, that he was too thin.
"Maybe it's the clothes I wear."
Before, she would always be wrapped in strange clothes that were more like layered cloth disguised as a dress, as if making her look bigger.
Today, she was wearing a light dress with simple frills, so it was no wonder she looked smaller than before.
"But I can't eat snacks."
All the desserts looked delicious. It was not easy to resist the impulse of his young instinct to devour everything.
Sarah never allowed Sierra to eat snacks in her previous life.
The first time she ate something sweet was at her pre-debut celebration at the age of fourteen, and she still hasn't forgotten the taste.
'After that, there was a rumor that I could not eat sweets at all.'
More precisely, there were too many eyes watching him in the banquet hall that made him feel uneasy. If she acted off track only once, even slightly, the news would soon reach the Empress, and she would definitely be the center of attention, in a bad way.
"If you don't like it, I'll take something else out."
“Umm.”
“. . .”
[ Alderuan Erveldotte ]
Atmosphere: Surprised by my daughter's new appearance
Mind: I can't believe you even answered sweetly. As expected of my daughter.
What was that?
As Siervian turned his gaze to the snacks, he thought of the past. He could not understand why his father's thoughts were like this.
The Emperor reached out to replace the dessert plate in front of Siervian. Misunderstanding that he was going to take it from her, she shouted.
“T-no!”
"No?"
"Are you going to put Sarah to bed?"
“Hm? Whahuh? About what you eat?”
"Yes." Yeah."

While his daughter nervously lowered her head, one corner of the Emperor's lips lifted slightly. It was because it was so funny how his daughter was too embarrassed to eat in front of others. It was only after he composed his features again did he speak.
"I won't tell him, so just eat."
He had been given permission, but he was still hesitant.
Ellie tells him that it was a lie that the Emperor tested her last time. But because of the education and conditioning he received that was so deeply embedded in him, he could not help but still be aware of the intent behind his father's words.
'Only one. No, maybe two.’
Siervian glanced at the plate of colorful macarons, pretending not to be too interested, but could not take his eyes off her. When the Emperor noticed this, he pushed the plate closer to him.
Then, his little hand moved by itself and took one.
The yellow macaron, which he thought would be hard, melted in his mouth as soon as he bit him.
It's sweet. . .'
It was sweet enough that the tip of his tongue could barely accept it. After taking one bite, he sneaked a look towards his father.
Pride.

This made him wonder if he was still allowed to eat more, so he carefully bit again.
Crickets, crisps.

Read the status window, bite the macarons, then repeat again and again.
As he ate like that, before he realized it, he had already consumed four macarons.
'No way.'
With eyes almost covered in tears, he turned to his father reflexively to see his reaction. He didn't mean to eat this much.
Meanwhile, the Emperor, who was fascinated by the way Siervian cheeks moved as he chewed, pushed forward what he had been preparing for a while.
It was the cake that Siervian had seen before, the cake that was covered in snow.
“Hum, hum.* Eat with this.”
{ tl/n: he coughs. }
Holding something like a short iron rod in one hand, the Emperor flicked towards the small plate.
"Huh?"
Not knowing what it was for, the water glittering with sugar rose in the air, shining like that. Little by little, the sugar water froze and immediately stuck to the iron rod, forming the top of the fork.
"I heard you have to eat this cake while it's cold."
His voice was still as loud as ever, and normally Siervian would be jolted to hear his rough tone, but this time it was different.
“Uwah. .”
He covered his gaping mouth in astonishment, unaware of his actions.
The cake was a type of dessert that only he had heard of before. He never saw it, let alone ate it with such a fork, because magic was needed to make it.
'Beautiful.'
As if in a trance, he snatched a fork that glittered and glittered like snow from his father's hand.
He never imagined his father would make this for him.
“Hum, hum. Eat before melting.”
[ Alderuan Erveldotte ]
Mind: Hex is right that this will make her happy. It's been a long time since he's done anything useful, so I'll give him a present.
Siervian was still wary of the status window, but he had no time to care. He could not let the fork in his hand melt, so he immediately stuck it into the cake and bit it.
Nyam, nyam.

The cake was very cold, just like the snow it looked. However, when the fork, which was also sweetened with sugar, entered through his lips, the snowy cream quickly melted in his mouth.
When he regained consciousness, he had already eaten the entire cake.
"Is your stomach big enough to hold that much?"
The former Siervian would immediately bow her head after hearing such a thing. Especially after eating so much like crazy. He would think that he was mocking her.
[ Alderuan Erveldotte ]
Mind: The way you eat is also beautiful. I'm sure now. The Mana Spirit had truly become a human. Isn't his charm much stronger than any spell I know?
Instead of bowing his head, Siervian looked straight at his father.
Unlike the cold cake she had just eaten, the words on the status window were extremely warm.
“I think the cake suits your taste.”
“Ya.”
The Emperor, as usual, crossed his arms impressively as he looked down on him, but now it seemed like his eyes were not that cold.
So I carefully expressed my thoughts.
“I want to eat it every day.”
* * *
“Which tape will we wear today, Princess?”
“Eri must choose one!”
"Fufu, should I do that?"
[ Elli ]
Kindness: +10
Ellie's been laughing a lot lately. And unlike Sarah, she always asks Siervian's opinion first.
Thanks to this, her life in the Princess Palace got better little by little. He didn't feel so suffocated anymore.
“Then, let's tie your hair with a blue ribbon today.”
"I like that!"
"It would fit His Majesty's eyes."
After Ellie said that, Siervian saw her reflection in the window.
In his previous life, he could not even see his own eyes. Because they remind him too much of others.
'Blue eyes.'
He looked into his own eyes for the first time in a long time. His blue eyes were just like the eyes of his brother and father.
[Siervian Erveldotte (5 years) ]
Synchronization of body and soul · 3%
The current actions are in line with the body.
:◈:
As he looked directly at the mirror, he could see a status window nearby.
Then, Siervian let out a heavy sigh.
“Oh, is there something you don't like, Princess?”
"No . .”
That did change from one percent to three percent, but still only three percent is very little. The increase is too slow. When will his actions follow the will of his soul?
Once again, he sighed as he looked at the status window, but the pattern below the sentence caught his attention.
"I think I've seen it somewhere."
At the bottom of the status window, an intricate pattern was embedded like a jewel. He could feel a little familiarity with her as he stared at her for longer, but he could not touch her.
'Hmm, maybe not? I must be imagining it.’
From the outside, it seemed like Ellie and Siervian were looking at the Siervian reflection in the mirror in astonishment.
“Now. I think my job here is done. ”
“Thank you yes.”
“How our Princess speaks is also so beautiful.”
As Siervian leaped from her chair, Ellie smiled gently as she helped him down. Siervian was happy to see Ellie smiling, but she was still not used to it.
“What's up, Princess?”
Even to her eyes, Ellie smiled brightly. A few days after Ellie was promoted to the position of butler, she began to express herself more honestly.
Sierra doesn't know why. But to Ellie, who continued to smile brightly, Siervian also expressed her thoughts more often.
“Eri also has a sweet smile.”
Ellie's eyes widened. But soon, there was a hint of sadness in his gaze.
[ Elli ]
Atmosphere: Sad
Think: Poor little girl. You must have been so scared all along.
Ellie bent down to align with Siervian's eyes. His friendly brown eyes sparkled with tears.
“You must be very afraid of me, Your Majesty. I'm sorry."
"It's good."
In his previous life, Siervian also misunderstood Ellie. She doesn't realize how sweet Ellie really is.
So he's really fine.
Now, he knew who was really smiling at him.
“I want to be by your side all this time.”
Feeling sorry for the child who immediately attached herself to the first person to show her kindness, Ellie quietly adjusted Siervian's dress as her status window appeared.
[ Elli ]
Mind: I want to protect the princess.
Isn't it enough that Ellie is honest with Siervian, and she continues to be by her side? Why would Ellie want to protect her?
“Princess, remember what I said? Everything Sarah said was a lie.”
"Yes." Yeah."
Ellie did not explain what she meant by wanting to protect Siervian and say something else. Siervian couldn't even ask because he couldn't open the status window.
"Now, shall we go?"
[ Elli ]
Mind: I hope everything will be okay.
This time, Sierra just nodded. Putting it aside for later, Siervian made a mental note to ask Ellie about what she saw in her status window next time.
Today was the first time in a long time that Siervian was summoned to the Empress's Palace.
* * *
Walking along the long corridor of the Empress Palace, Siervian could not hide her anticipation. Even though she was not her biological mother, she was excited to meet the Empress again.
Every time something happened, Siervian would go straight to the Empress to tell her everything. The empress always welcomed him and listened to him well, trusting all his words unlike anyone else in the palace.
The Empress was the only member of the Imperial Family who cared about Siervian to the bitter end.
To be honest, Siervian was still scared because he ate too much yesterday.
But his father comforted him and told him that he would keep it a secret.
"Her Majesty Princess Siervian has come to visit Her Majesty the Empress."
"Lake in."
Unable to hide his excitement, Siervian almost jumped into the room.
But when she faced the Empress, who now looked younger than she remembered, an unexpected status window appeared.
